Go Where It’s Warm…

Welcome to the energy of Scorpio, ruler of issues that involve upheaval, power, transformation, and all things hidden – which can be unsettling, as you feel out of control when it’s happening to you.

If you are having an uncomfortable experience, I suggest that you give yourself as much space as possible for self-care. What do you do to take care of yourself when you’re feeling off-balance, upset, fearful, or down?

When you need care and attention I invite you to “go where it’s warm.” In those moments you need a soft place to fall, and I hope that you have people in your life who are there for you, willing to listen with compassion, especially when you need support.

This guidance may seem like a no-brainer, but you’d be surprised to know how many people make the wrong choices when they need comfort and care by reaching out to those who can’t or don’t give them what they need.

The effects of not getting your needs met when seeking comfort can create an additional hurt on top of the initial one. It can also validate an old belief that nobody is there for you, leaving you feeling alone and unsupported – and very sad

When you continue to go to people who can’t or don’t give you want you need it’s like going to the hardware store for oranges. Don’t do it! If the dynamic isn’t working for you, don’t go there!

Please understand that current people/circumstances in your life can only trigger wounds that are already there – current situations do not create the wounds. They just reinforce them.

Also, be mindful that just because someone cares about you it doesn’t mean that they can help you, so ask for compassionate listening, not necessarily advice. When receiving advice, always consider the source.

You discern what is right for you in any given moment. If you make a choice that doesn’t work for you, don’t “bad dog” yourself – make another choice!

Keep going, because you are important and worth every ounce of effort it takes to be in alignment for your Highest Good. Now, more than ever, what we (and the world) need is more love and compassion.
